Opposition Leader’s Bermuda Day Message
[Bermuda Day message from Opposition Leader Jarion Richardson]
Bermuda Day—a favourite holiday for many locals and visitors alike. It’s a time when residents gather to do what they do best…enjoy each other’s company, put their differences and stresses to the side, and enter full holiday mode.
Whether it’s on land or out on the water, Bermuda Day is one of the most treasured days of the year where we are one—a sentiment which should always resonate within us.
Why? Because being kind and friendly towards one another is in our DNA as Bermudians. It is our culture. Just as making our favourite meals, maintaining our family traditions, and embracing our community.
Irrespective of our backgrounds, our culture is the lifeblood of this beautiful island we have the privilege to call home.
Bermuda Day is a day which literally penetrates our souls. From the dancing to the beats of the majorettes, marching with the Regiment Band, and of course, the A-YO of the gombeys…it’s a great day for all of us to enjoy.
I implore that we keep these traditions alive so that we, as a community, can create memories which will last a lifetime. Let the activities which we love and affiliate with Bermuda Day continue for many years to come.
On behalf of the One Bermuda Alliance, I would like to wish you and your family a wonderful Bermuda Day. Whatever you do this year, enjoy it to the fullest with your loved ones. And most of all, have fun!
